The clock ticking by,
Counting the seconds, minutes even hours passing by,
The constant stare seated carefully on the wall full of memories,
The photo gallery telling innumerable stories,
The stories of time, love and wait,
Wait for you to look back,
Wait for you to finally end this separation,
Wait for you to call my name,
The distance is becoming unbearable,
The urge to be with you is unavoidable,
The tears of separation running undying,
When will this separation end?
Will only our soul be fortunate enough to reunite?
All my dreams, running towards you,
Jumping in your arms, ending my misery,
The years of separation screaming in anguish,
Hoping to fall back into you,
Searching for love and home.
